Rally History (part III)

[januszsz]

First Donegal Rally was 1972. Apart from 2001 it has run every year since.

There is a great book, "The Donegal Experience" by Ivan Fuery. Great pictures and top tens (except 1972 & 1973).

I'll try to get Ivan to post here with how to get a copy.

Fred

Thank you Mr Gallagher for pointing that book. I followed your instruction and bought a copy. In fact it's a great one. The only weakness is that "except". It's pity the Author didn't managed to collect top 10s of 1972 and 1973. Are you able to let me know missing classifications?
